Directions:

Carefully remove the peel from the oranges (or other citrus fruit.) Place the peel in water to cover. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 30 minutes. Some varieties of oranges or grapefruit have a bitter tang to the peel. This bitterness can be removed by repeating the simmering step two or three times. Each simmering in fresh water leaches out the bitter taste. Navel Oranges do not have this problem so they do not need the repeated boilings.

Drain and cool the peel. Cut the peel into thin strips between 1/8 and 1/4 thick. Mix the sugar, honey and water. Drop the peel in and simmer for 20 minutes, until the syrup is clear. Cool it in the syrup. Let it sit for a few hours until the syrup is slightly absorbed into the peel. Warm, Drain and spread in waxed paper until dry. Roll in superfine granulated sugar.

------------------------------------------------------

4 ounces candied orange peel

4 ounces ground almonds

4 ounces superfine sugar

4 ounces plain white or Italian type 00 flour

6 tbs milk

2 ounces dark chocolate

Directions

COOL TIME 15min.

-------------------------

Preheat the oven to 350deg. F.

Line several baking trays with parchment paper.

Chop the orange peel very finely and put in a bowl.

Add the almonds and sugar and sift in the flour, reserving 1 tbs

Mix well together, then add enough milk to form a smooth, firm dough.

Roll the mixture into 24 small balls and place, well apart, on the baking trays.

Sprinkle with the remaining flour.

Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until golden brown.

Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool.

Melt the chocolate and use a little to sandwich the cookies together in pairs.

Oh my! Way too good. You reeled me in when I saw the almonds but then orange and chocolate yuuuum.I wonder what that would taste like with candied ginger in place of the orange? For ease and flavor an absolute 5. (I did see a recipe for candied orange peel somewhere, maybe you might post that also)
